Everyone has flash drives, and they're often very generic looking. By using a bit of yarn to add some simple customization to a USB flash drive, you can have something unique and personal!

Or, if you have those USB sticks with the grippy outside rubber and you've had enough with all the fluffs and dust it collects, then this is for you! (this was my inspiration).

This project is very simple, easy, and quick. It can be done in under 10 minutes and doesn't require any skills.

Materials:
  • Some yarn of your colour choice
  • a USB flash drive
  • 10 minutes
  • glue (optional)

Step 1Some notes

Some notes
First step is to find a boring USB drive and yarn.

The USB drive that I used has a rubbery exterior that grips to everything, so I chose not to use glue. You may want to lightly coat the USB drive in some glue, or apply some in strategic places. I also did this to another one of my USB drives with a smooth plastic surface, and it worked just fine. Just remember to wrap it carefully and tightly.
